The two, who, a week and a half ago, were engaged in a thrilling Walker Cup knockout final showdown which ended prematurely due to bad light, will play the second match of a double-header at the venue, with St Andrew Technical High School (STATHS), who are hoping to rekindle memories of the 1987 championship run and Tivoli Gardens, who last won the title a decade ago, down to face each other in the opener at 1 p.m.

Shot at semis

All four teams in the group (Group Three) are in with a shot at a place in the semi-finals after playing to draws in the first set of matches. Only the group winners are guaranteed a place in the final four. The best second-place team of all three groups will join the group winners in the semis.

In the clash at 1 p.m., STATHS, who were steady in the preliminaries, brought their 'A' game against an organised and disciplined Excelsior and were unlucky not to have stolen a victory and come today, they will want to repeat that effort against a Tivoli Gardens team which surprised many in holding Calabar to a 1-1 draw in their first encounter.

STATHS, whose team comprises mostly of the members of KSAFA's Coorville Gardens successful Under-17 unit, including coach Keith Nichol, will be looking towards Odane Slater and Kimo Grant for further inspiration, while Tivoli, who narrowly got the better Charlie Smith to advance to this round, will hope that long-serving coach Dave Clarke can deliver the tactics needed to pull off another enterprising result.

In the feature, spectators should once again be treated to a ding-dong battle between two of the competition's most consistent teams.

Suppressed Calabar

In the Walker Cup final Excelsior, under the tactical supervision of Leebert Halliman, suppressed most of Calabar's better ball players and almost got the result they wanted.

However, coach, Alrick Clarke, who is in his first season at Red Hills Road, would have none of it and today, should both teams continue to play to their strengths, spectators could be in for a treat as three points could give either team one foot in the semi-finals.
